Just wondering, have any of you received the update over WiFi yet ?
I called HTC and they said it has already been released, but they can't release it to all phones at once (server issues). I haven't, but I'd lov

It got released yesterday the 4th. It is being sent out 10,000 at a time.

And yes the leaked version is the final OTA release.

This is correct.

They released it yesterday, but I had already installed the one that was "leaked". So today I compared the official release and the leaked one, and they are in fact the exact same thing. No need to wait to recieve it OTA, just go to the thread where the RUU is avaliable for download. It's all the same thing.

Including the GPS issues, and the removal of the HTC wifi update option?

No GPS issues here. Yes there's no more HTC wifi update option there.

After GB install. GPS doesn't work.

Sorry to hear, my GPS is working even better then before. If I'm outside I get a near instant lock on. Try reinstalling..?

Ive been running the RUU update for a couple days now...no issues...runs great.

Same here, it works perfect for me. No issues at all.. love my phone even more because of it. ;)

The leaked was released but no official gingerbread. The only official update released yesterday was for HTC Sync. They may not have put the info about the gingerbread update on there site yet. That's what HTC told me when I called.
